Years ago I worked at a men’s clothing store called Iron and Resin, based out of Ventura, CA. They have a men’s waxed canvas jacket, the Scout, that’s super classic and great for an oversized look for the ladies. My buddy has one from ten years ago that’s still in good nick—you just have to top up the waxed dressing at the elbows occasionally. If you want to support a small business with ur field jacket purchase, check them out. ironandresin.com

The Italians love it too, you should see all the milanese wearing them in the fall, they all seem to know exactly the weekend to bring them out

For me I’m seeking to rebuy a replica of what I wore in middle school. I am hitting the trend for round 2 and kinda love it tbh

I’ve been a Barbour wearer since the age of three and honestly there’s no better jacket. I also wrote a field jacket post this weekend that you might be interested in: https://fewerandbetter.substack.com/p/which-field-jacket-is-right-for-you

A natural born style star ⭐️ I love your post. Thank you for sharing it. Such a developed perspective. The M-65 is perfection.

More like my grandparents were raging Anglophiles lol!! But they definitely helped develop my personal sense of style.

I love the M-65 and it's such an underrated style for women! The softer fabric (mine is grey flannel) really helps give it a nice feminine twist.

Yes! The Loewe jacket is at the top of my fall obsession for multiple years. I also love Alexa Chung's style.

It’s so gorgeous! And Alexa is the icon we all deserve.
